This is a fine review, one of the best Tina S reactions. I just want to mention that, to me, her incredible & powerful vibrato is the engine that takes us to other realms & her astonishing skills (sometimes obvious, sometimes very subtle) sustain us there. She's one of a kind. Even her teacher, wonderful jazz fusion guitarist Renaud Louis-Servais, finally said, "Yes, she's a genius."
I agree...one of the best reviews on the Tina S I have come across thus far. Your comments are on point. Here it is about music, and you take us on this journey. Tina, indeed, is a music, specifically a guitar genius. All her "shreds" with the ultimate brilliance that only she has during our time... Thanks, again, for your insightful comments.
They’re always better when an actual musician does the reaction, I’ve noticed. Someone that has no clue how hard it is to do a ‘clean’ sweep ALL the time, for example, doesn’t truly appreciate the work put in to be that good, prodigy or not. Ppl forget that prodigies just have the inclination, but they still have to put the time and practice into it.
Tina recorded this video on RU-vid on September 4, 2015. Jason BECKER immediately saw the video and tweeted on September 4, 2015 : Jason Becker @jasonelibecker 4 sept. 2015 "16 year old Tina S. does a great cover of my song Altitudes!"
I liked your review. I always look for guitar players reviews when checking out Tina's reactions. She started playing rhythm guitar with a pick at 10 or 11 years old and received her first electric guitar at 13. Her proficiency on guitar between 13 and 17 skyrocketed. I think most of her "Covers" are better than the originals! The intensity, power, and pick control she displays at such a young age is astonishing. Try reviewing some of her classical pieces, they are a knockout.
This girl had me at hello!! The best guitar player on this planet she can play any guitar part from any guitar player note for note with no mistakes plus add her own twist and sounds which makes her a fenomm of a player. Love love watching her play !! Also, to throw this out there I see comments all the time on her vids saying "shes the best female guitar player out there" Uhhh NO NO this has nothing to do with being a girl because no matter what shes the best just guitar player on the planet, guy, girl, Tiger or lion SHES THE BEST GUITAR PLAYER lol sorry for that rant 😃
Great reaction and great breakdown of whats going on. Her technical masterpiece is her cover of Moonlight Sonata, but For the Love of God, Altitudes, and The Loner are my favorites. Now that you've rediscovered her, i hope you will do more reactions.
would love to see your reactions to some of Tina's other stuff, like Tornado of Souls, Through the Fire and Flames etc. I love your insights on different guitar techniques as well as how these are executed and employed. Makes a big difference from so many other reaction people on youtube.
Love your reaction, so emotional...and Tina, what a genious fom another sphere 😍 Have you seen her covering Steve Vai ftlog? My absolute favorite song...
You mention the classical elements Jason Becker put into the piece. I think Tina, with her classical background (by training & also from her family) relates particularly well to them & it shows in this & other classically influenced pieces she plays. I was hoping she would carve out a classical/metal niche, but everyone to her own. Maybe someday...
Hello, thank you for the video. I advise you to make, if you haven't done it yet, a reaction to the wonderful young singer Diana Ankudinova. This girl will surprise you with her artistry and rare timbre of voice. She has covers of famous songs, and also performs her own songs.
Petrucci's 1 of my top guitar players. I've got tickets to see Dream Theatre in Newcastle next year...1 of their only 2 UK gigs. I've followed Tina for a while now...Unbelievable talent...Mind blowing!!! Have you checked her out 'For the Love of God' by Steve Vai? It's your sort of your cup of tea...I've heard she stopped posting on RU-vid to focus on her Uni studies...Law, apparently. I really hope we see her again. She is amazing...some of her covers are better than the originals😁
@@0ParisFrance No, it's just the limited information I pic up on RU-vid. We all speculate, including yourself, but I'm pretty sure someone would have heard if she'd died...It's a pretty morbid speculation of yours without any proof...
@@0ParisFrance If that's the case it's very sad indeed. So presumably you have more details of her death if you read it in a French newspaper. It's not just gonna print 'Tina S is dead' is it?...I'm assuming that you are French, otherwise why would you be reading a French newspaper. And I'm still not convinced because absolutely nobody else in RU-vid world has mentioned it, plus you still haven't presented any proof...
Technically speaking, Altitudes isn't a song, but a piece, or a musical composition; unless of course you want to make the argument that Becker (and Tina here as well, obviously) makes the guitar sing, which is an argument I could be swayed to accept.
You should check out a few other great videos by Tina S like Beethoven's Moonlight Sonata (3rd movement) ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-o6rBK0BqL2w.html or Steve Vai For the Love of God ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-nJi8iSpzq9I.html or Pink Floyd Comfortably Numb ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-2_P-t0idgqI.html
@@jody9450 Where is the proof that she is alive? Her Facebook account is no longer active, her Twitter account is no longer active, her RU-vid account is no longer active, her 2 email addresses never respond. There are no photos, no videos, no interviews, no comments from Tina. She does not deny the announcement of her death. All young teens like her are active on social networks!
@@0ParisFrance Could be keeping low profile ... One of the rumors . You know what I'm saying .I Would like to know for sure one way or another . So many rumors . That we now are getting the Chinese Telephone effect ! You know .. I thought I would find an obituary . But no I haven't . Thank you for your replies . They are very much appreciated !
@@jody9450 I've been having this very same argument with him/her these last few days. I was advised to ignore them because they originally said she died in 2018. Check out my conversation above...I asked for proof too and he hasn't given any...
Good reaction. I want to introduce you to a Korean singer. She is such an amazing singer and you won't stop being blown away by her every performance! She originally started out as a Gospel Singer in her church and worked her way up from there. But the reason why she is not mainstream and everywhere is since her reasoning for singing is not for fame or money but to sing for God. Michael Jackson's vocal coach once offered to make her a big star worldwide but she declined politely. She had cervical cancer when she was young, but now she's much better. So she's trying to be humble and do good. Please react to her songs, this is not the end of her amazing singing! But this should get you started. Hope you enjoy! ^_^ I'd appreciate it if you could respond to Sohyang`s song (All Live) ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-T4UyIMkdy4M.html : I Have Nothing (Sohyang) ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-C6iHh4yBxCo.html : Bridge Over Troubled Water ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-GvsgCllcNPE.html : Lean On Me (Sohyang) ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-YwgF3Gylu-0.html : Oh Holy Night (Sohyang) ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-LrNkVRrK7_I.html : The Power Of Love (Sohyang) ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-iXRGhP0JcpY.html : The Greatest Love Of All (Sohyang) ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE--YuLeWqE6tg.html : Beauty And The Beast (Sohyang) ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-DOmnfmXlZCc.html : I Will Always Love You (Ailee) ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-cmLJJKok3n0.html : Desperado (Yim Jae beom) ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-NTKOyUWRO7o.html : Nella Fantasia (Park Ki Young) ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-g1Nm5Ypi9vw.html : When We Were Young (Klang) ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-Bc-s6DAcqWY.html : Into the Unknown (Jung Eunji) ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-J3d5OkPxER4.html : When We Were Young (TAEYEON) ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-DnMXyOSfKK8.html : Bohemian Rhapsody (Seung Yeon) ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-nxUASv1Z2TU.html : Bohemian Rhapsody (Forestella) ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-Yo3TqUKoyAk.html : Never Enough (Kang Kyun Sung)
